I'm on mc again, this time its 3 days mc.

On Tues nite, i had really bad stomach pains. It was so painful that i cried and couldn't move much. I called Kelvin and he brought some brown sugar which I asked him to buy cuz i thot that would help but it didn't..Soon i really couldn't take it any more and I asked him to call an ambulance to send me to the A&E ward at the hospital. He was like har, really so serious meh and i was like yes...

But luckily after a while, i managed to walk abit so got to his bro's car downstairs and then Kelvin drove me to a nearby clinic to see if they could attend to me..but the queue was super damn long and we decided to go to A&E at Alexandra Hospital (i refused to go Tan Tock Seng after what happened to kelvin's friend). Fortunately, there wasn't a long queue and I waited about 15-20 mins before it was my turn. By then, the pain was so unbearable i thought i was going to die really. I was just thinking, i am so young, i havent done so many things yet. I don't wanna die so young, i havent even gotten married yet!

When it was my turn, the nurse examined me and then they took blood and urine samples. After that, they asked me to lie on the hospital bed and put a needle into me and put me on a drip. I was like how come need to put me on a drip, they said i was dehydrated and needed sodium chloride. A doc came to ask me a few qns and then later she said it could be most likely be gastric (due to the antibiotics i took last week for my throat infection)..but it could also be appendicitis because the sample showed i had a minor infection..if it was appendicitis, i would need to be admitted to the hosp. At that moment, i was really so scared. I dont wanna go for an operation to remove my appendix, i would have a scar!!

During the whole time i was lying on the hosp bed in the A&E ward, i couldnt sleep much even though i tried..i kept thinking about the meeting that i had to miss with our client the next day and my call with my assignee that was scheduled on wed..i was also thinking about silly things like not being to lunch with my colleagues at ikea after the meeting with the client and not being able to wear our mng striped tops on friday..I prayed to God and asked him to heal me too..

i lay on the bed for abt 2 hours and during this time, they gave me some medicine for gastric pain and i felt a little better after that. After a while, the sodium chloride ran out so they put a new drip and then added 2 injections to the tube. After that another nurse came by with a another bag, this time it was potassium chloride. I asked what it was for, and the nurse said that from my blood sample, my blood is low in potassium so they need to give me some potassium. I was like woah, so serious meh..but i was so glad after a while, i felt so much better and the pain went away. They gave me some water to drink and said i could leave now. But if the pain returned, i would need to come back to the hosp..they also gave me a letter and asked me to go to the polyclinic this fri for another blood test..after that i came out from the ward and Kelvin was waiting for me. He so poor thing, waited from 11pm till about 2 am plus..we went to collect my medicine from the hosp pharmacy and he sent me home. Kelvin was telling me my mum and grandma were very worried and my mum kept calling him to see how i was..

I am feeling much better after resting the whole day yesterday, mum cooked porridge and green bean soup with black sugar and i took the medicine for the gastric..tomorrow need to go for the blood test and hopefully everything is ok and i can go back to work next Monday.

I really hate being sick, now i can really understand how impt good health is. I must build up my immunity system and eat healthy food from now on!
